A dozen records in my arms
Whisper "Tim, don't be afraid
Without regret, just pay."
And I paid
When you were overseas
I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone
When you were working late
I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone
Too weak to tell you face to face
All night I prayed for you to ask
Misguided hopes fell fast
And were
When you were overseas
I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone
When you were working late
I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone
When you found out I heard you crying late
Just listening to your tape
But then at last you had to deal with me
And when the morning broke
The tears were on my sleeves
A dozen records in my arms
Whisper "Tim, don't be afraid
Without regret, just stay."
And I stayed, and I stayed
When you were overseas
I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone
When you were working late
I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone
When you were overseas
I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone, I wasn't alone
